Test welds / failure comments

[Sodo]

Tried looking up your the newest slang usage.
Founds lots but nothing that made logic in your context.

Last time the internet look-up yielded nothing like the definition that you provided when I posted the slang explanation that you used back in early August.
Once again I can find nothing that would explain the context of "hitch is bomber". I know that the young crowd changes meanings to words all the time and even Google can't keep up on the newest slang but nothing I find makes sense. I can speculate but I will ask. What is the slang meaning for this one?

You need some SHOP time!

I bet it was welded with a 240 volt machine, but that doesn't mean it was set hot enough!

That is funny right there.

We all need things.

All you had to do was answer the question. Instead, no you took your normal pattern. You have a pattern of attacking people and their posts. There are so many adjectives that fit you and your manners and way of thinking but they will remain unsaid.

What you need is a personality.

:thumbdown:now we are going personal.

 

[Furu]

And you think that Soda has not been on the personal attack for weeks as well as several others?

 

[roadhunter]

You made a personal comment toward Sodo in post #33. That is a fact. Dont' try to change the subject.

Hey fubar don't make me go on the internet to look up personality :drink:
I haven't attacked anybody, all I've done is decline to back down, it's been defense. And regrettable a guy has to defend himself on a welding forum (IMHO). Welding gone more than a day without getting a thread locked why don't you let loose with those adjectives and see what happens?

However, I've been in the shop today, it's been good, real goooood

also:

I cannot wait to read the comments this thread generates

lilranch you getting what you want?

So what does "bomber" mean? Not familiar with that.

 

[Sodo]

Slang for "indestructable". I suppose it means bomb-proof. Used a lot mountainbiking, dirt biking, probably other sports. I dont know when it originated but I was mountainbiking in the early 90s.

Used here with regards to my new 10,000 lb OEM Ford trailer hitch having zero penetration welds and what looks like a cold lap. And quite likely even with these perceived faults, stronger than sh**t.

Speaking of trailer hitches and roadways,,,,

Mark you have an eagle's eye - in real life it looks even more like a crack! But this (OEM Ford trailer hitch) has only pulled 3,000lbs on dump runs, for 10 miles, and below speeds of 30mph (truck is new, 3 weeks old). I thought it was interesting to note almost zero penetration. Jim I''ll probably weld it on 2nd side but still thinking whether I should go back to the dealer with it. One thing about this joint, its good weldment design, it's a good weld to crack, if that makes any sense.
